That's what's up.

I need millennials like yourself to confirm via snapchat, tho. My addled GenX brain can't quite process that social platform...

Nice, thanks for the post.

 

[JimHurley]

Polley will be ours.

 

[Hungryhusky99]

Polley will be ours.

Enoch say this?

 

[KingAG]

For those who read too much into Twitter like myself. He liked Adam Finklestein's tsweet about makai'a commitment. Could mean absolutely nothing...

 

[KingAG]

And he followed Makai.....Very Interesting

 

[Hungryhusky99]

And he followed Makai.....Very Interesting

Also follows and is followed by some current players on Instagram.

 

[scotty0330]

signs are good that this could be commit number two from these signs and him being quoted by Paxton as saying he was amazed. This along with the other tea leaves of following Kai and a few other current players and signs are favorable to a good outcome with this kid too.

 

[James]

I really want this kid, probably because I see so much Daniels in him, I think he will be a 4 year quality versatile player, and, I think he fits our system so well. I like his skills being diversified outside and taking it to the rim with his apparent mentality to score from that forward position. I've been clicking the boneyard all weekend to get feedback from his visit only to find silence. I at least expected, "had a great visit and expect a fall decision after I take my other visits", but nothing? No Courant? No Register? No New London Day or Journal Inquirer? No Boneyard hidden cams or insider leaks? No coverage from his home town? I guess I have to be patient and put my clicking finger back in my nose.

i do really like polley a lot, even with his 100+ ranking. The main reason is how he ended his aau season, at both peach jam and fab48 he was stellar and more efficient than kevin knox, his five star running mate. Im not sure if i see lot of daniels; to me what stood out about daniels was his length for defense, for polley i think its his shooting/offense. check this vid from fab48



he comes off as a khris middleton type wing, one who really likes driving hard and finishing with an array of layups and floaters. But his main skillet is shooting you can tell, his shooting mechanics are fantastic.

Been looking for the guy to sit at the pocket of the foul line and shoot it against the zone. Notice his few mid range shots look great - likes to pull up. Would be a very good committ #2

 

[David 76]

But would you wait for DJ to decide?

 

[Huskyforlife]

He has the game of a 3 but plays the four. Would be an interesting puzzle piece for sure.

we need one this year ha. i'm guessing larrier plays alot of minutes at small ball 4, that allows ollie to trot out his three best guards; gilbert adams purvis larrier and brimah. thats a crunch time 5 there.

 

[rip7774]

All those foul shots made me think of that Nolan recruiting vid in the layup line! Hope we get him nonetheless! Like the aggressiveness to the goal.

[kansashusky]

Can anyone summarize this?

If he does commit, does this affect any of our other targets a la DJ Harvey?

Thanks!

 

[Dynasty]

Someone from the staff watched Polley yesterday.

 

[Kembacity]

I bet we get this kid, Ollie seems to like dynamic players so he seems to fit that bill, not the typical 4. The longer it goes the tougher it gets, but this feels good

 

[KembaStepback]

Is he only a 3*? and only 6'7"? I think we need to aim higher...don't mind him as a plan C/D.

 

[CallMeBruce]

Is he only a 3*? and only 6'7"? I think we need to aim higher...don't mind him as a plan C/D.

He's a 4-star and a top-150 player nationally. Relax.

He's rising up the recruiting rankings and we're on him early. Remember Devin Robinson was not even ranked top 100 going into his senior year and was a 5 star by the end of his senior season. Some guys take longer to develop than others.

 

[Matrim55]

He's a 4-star and a top-150 player nationally. Relax.

And he's mostly listed at 6-foot-9 as well. That 6-foot-7 measurement was from early 2015, just before he turned 16. Kid's grown a couple of inches.

If he truly is 6'9, this would make a huge difference in his overall ceiling.

 

[Burnsbros23]

I really like Polley looks like a solid player. Doesn't seem like he's 6'9 in the videos. But maybe he's still growing.

What about my post made you think I wasn't relaxed? I know it's not the best source, but I saw 3* and 6'7" on Scout.com. That's all. I still think they should aim higher. Top 150 is good and all, but for me, I'd hold off and wait for better options, unless they really think he can contribute and be productive.

 

[KemBuckets21]

It's this ^^^^ kind of post that makes him think you aren't relaxed. Dont worry, happens to me all the time.

I know what you mean, but why does everyone jump to the conclusion that anytime anyone says anything they're fired up? Id understand if I went on a huge long rant. I just made a quick comment.

I'll look a little closer to see if I can get exact mau-surements.
